    <p>I don't believe it is. The short version is, the at-spi bus is
      not available in the flatpak sandbox. I know there was an issue
      raised back in 2016, to try and get this resolved. The web url for
      this github issue is,
      <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/79">https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues/79</a>. I really hope we can
      get something resolved with this technology, because I know more
      and more programs are using it, besides Chirp. On to work I go,
      but 73     and have a great day.</p>

                    <br>
                    Rest of the work is from the terminal.<br>
                    <br>
                    First, install Flatpak:<br>
                    <br>
                    $ sudo apt install flatpak<br>
                    <br>
                    The other howtos seem to have missed this next step.
                    You need to use<br>
                    flatpak to install the “freedesktop” platform. First
                    update flatpak<br>
                    and your paths.<br>
                    <br>
                    $ flatpak update -v<br>
                    <br>
                    This will give you a warning about paths, something
                    like:<br>
                    <br>
                    Note that the directories<br>
                    <br>
                    '/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share'<br>
'/home/[username]/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share'<br>
                    <br>
                    are not in the search path set by the XDG_DATA_DIRS
                    environment<br>
                    variable, so applications installed by Flatpak may
                    not appear on your<br>
                    desktop until the session is restarted.<br>
                    <br>
                    Since we now have to log out anyway, now might be a
                    good time to make<br>
                    sure you are in the dialout group.<br>
                    <br>
                    Use  the groups command to list your active groups.
                    If the group<br>
                    “dialout” does not appear, add yourself to the group
                    (replace<br>
                    [username] with your username):<br>
                    <br>
                    $ sudo usermod -aG dialout [username]<br>
                    <br>
                    Now restart your session (or computer) and return to
                    the terminal.<br>
                    <br>
                    ~$ flatpak update -v<br>
                    Looking for updates…<br>
                    Nothing to do.<br>
                    <br>
                    Don’t worry about installation directory warnings if
                    you haven’t<br>
                    installed anything yet. Those will be created later.
                    Important is that<br>
                    we got rid of the path warning. Moving on….<br>
                    <br>
                    Now you need to get the Freedesktop repository
                    installed:<br>
                    <br>
                    $ flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub<br>
                    <a
                      href="https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo"
                      target="_blank" rel="noreferrer"
                      moz-do-not-send="true"
                      class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo</a><br>
                    <br>
                    and then install the Freedesktop Platform:<br>
                    <br>
                    $ flatpak install flathub
                    org.freedesktop.Platform//19.08<br>
                    <br>
                    This might take a while its a big (~0.5Gb) download.
                    Grab some coffee<br>
                    and make some QSO’s….. Maybe check out my club’s
                    website:<br>
                    <a href="http://w6ek.org" target="_blank"
                      rel="noreferrer" moz-do-not-send="true"
                      class="moz-txt-link-freetext">http://w6ek.org</a><br>
                    <br>
                    Finally we can install Chirp!  (replace .flatpack
                    filename with your<br>
                    downloaded version)<br>
                    <br>
                    $ flatpak install
                    Downloads/chirp-daily-20220515.flatpak<br>
                    <br>
                    You’re done! You can run chirp from your
                    applications menu or from the<br>
                    command like like this:<br>
                    <br>
                    $ flatpak run com.danplanet.chirp<br>
                  </div>
                  <div class="gmail_default" style="FONT-SIZE:small"><br>
